local area connection

[Andy7]

Hello, I just built a PC. I have been installed windows 7, but I could not get into internet (online). I tried to perform trouble shooting and problems found. The error was "The local area connection adapter is not working properly." What is this mean?

Thank you for your help.

It means that the driver for the NIC doesn't work well or there is another problem with the ethernet card..

Thank you very much for your response. How could I fix this error? The ethernet is on board.( attached on the motherboard)

Thanks again!

Go to the Device Manager in the Control Panel/System and have a look if the ethernet card is working properly. Keep us posted if the card is working and drivers are installed..

Hi, when you told me that the ethernet card was not working properly, I checked and I found out thet light wasn't flashing.

So, I  unplugged the cable and I put back in and I seen the ethernet card was flashing. That's it, I'm online....Also I checked

in device manager and it says the ehternet card is working properly... Thanks again!
